Good morning... 🫩🎧

Purple crocus flowers in one of my flower beds.

We have just had a storm but my crocus flowers survived 🪻👍🏻

Glad Påsk 👋🏻🙂

About 3-4 weeks late compared to last year but finally some purple crocus flowers are visible 🪻👍🏻

TV makers abandon horizontal TVs in favor of vertical screens en masse A generational shift is sending seismic shockwaves through the TV industry and is ripping through the market. TV manufacturers are taking drastic action to address a dramatic market change. A dynamic that was causing a modest change when millennials entered the market is quickly escalating now Generation Z is displacing baby boomers. In a drastic move, TV makers are phasing out traditional horizontal TV sets with immediate effect, replacing them with models using a vertical orientation or, in other words, switching from ‘landscape’ to ‘portrait’ format. What’s happening? Younger consumers have stopped buying TV sets altogether because they don’t get the horizontal screen concept, having grown up with smartphones from the get go. “Yeah, my parents and grandparents used to have such TVs. I never understood how they could watch anything on it. Everything looks so weird. It’s like most of the picture is missing,” a youngster said. Industry organizations like the European Association of Broadcasters (EAB) and the American Broadcast Union (ABU) are at this moment fully engaged authoring new standards for transmission of vertical content. The focus is entirely on OTT streaming formats however and broadcast TV in all variants – terrestrial, satellite, cable and IPTV – is skipped. Spokeswoman Claudia Macarone explains: “We’ve done focus groups with the target customers and the vertical TV format was a smashing success. However, when we asked the participants to hook it up they were baffled at the sight of a coax cable. Nobody recognized it. One participant thought it was a legacy networking cable. The rest just stared in bewilderment.” - “The whole content production chain will need to be changed overnight. This is a far more profound change than the one from SD to HD or HD to UHD. Companies will need to write off all their tools and equipment.

A favorite April fools joke of mine, from FlatpanelsHD, is seven years old today. Mostly funny because Samsung made it (a TV with a vertical smartphone-like screen) a reality a few months later. 😊📺

21 March World Down Syndrome Day Colourful socks

#WorldDownSyndromeDay

Put on some colourful socks!
On 21 March, wearing two different-coloured socks symbolises solidarity with people living with Down’s syndrome. The pair of socks represents a pair of chromosomes. In people with trisomy 21, there are three copies of chromosome 21.

A collage of nine spring garden scenes: clusters of pale yellow primroses; soft pink cherry blossom on a branch; drifts of bright yellow daffodils; nodding snake’s head fritillaries in purple and white; a rosette of primroses in grass; trumpet daffodils; deep magenta tulips in a pot; a single bowed yellow tulip; and a naturalised mix of white and purple fritillaries with blue flowers.

“Spring unlocks the flowers to paint the laughing soil.”
— Reginald Heber (1783–1826)

Today is the Spring Equinox, when day and night are held in perfect balance. From this moment, the light grows stronger, and the earth answers as buds swell and flowers unfold.

Haha 😂👌🏻

Crocus plants in one of my flower beds. No flowers yet.

Several weeks late compared to last year but at least they are visible now, my crocus plants. 🪻👍🏻

Ja, här nere i söder blåste det rejält kallt i flera veckor så det är verkligen skönt att slippa det nu.

Hoppas att du och din dotter får en fin St Patrick's Day tillsammans ☘️💚

Ja, det hade varit roligt att kunna 👀

Tack, det är bara fint med mig. Jag har inte hittat på så mycket på sistone men det ska bli skönt att kunna vara mer utomhus nu när min favoritårstid våren är på gång. Vårstäda, plantera och njuta av solen. 🪻🌞

Du då, är det bra med dig också?

Hoppas du slapp undan böter för att du ställde din cykel där man inte fick 😅

Jättefina bilder, ser ut som en mysig stadsdel 🤩🤍

Yes it is 😅

Haha :-) I can imagine it was a somewhat challenging feature on summer days.

A bit cold but the seasonal roof off premiere is complete ✅

Miss Freckles arrived this afternoon and made my day! This is her first appearance this year-she’s been coming to see me for eleven years! She loves fruit, strawberries & watermelon are her favorite. I love her so much!!🩷 🥰 #ILoveTurtles #FloridaBoxTurtle

Thank you, I hope warmer weather will come to you too soon 🍀🙂

The pond outside my home. Ice and snow on the pond. The sky is grey.

Colder than normal January and most of February but finally much less painful to be outdoors 🙌🏻

Spring is coming 🌞🌺

Thank you, yes I am keeping warm under my blankets 🙂 I hope your day has been good.

The pond outside my home. Ice, snow and birds walking around on it.

Current status: No colors but all the more birds and snow 🐦❄️

The pond outside my home. It's snowing.

More snow, more of the ice cold winds. 🥶

Soon Friday again though, and we have already got two more hours of daylight compared to the winter solstice in December. 👍🏻

Weather forecast. Winds from east and a few minus degrees Celsius.

Strong, crazy cold winds from Russia for several days now and it doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon. 🥶
Some spring would be nice, please thank you... 🤞🏻
Well, at least it's Friday 🙌🏻
